Think Pink
“Millennial pink” remains an en vogue color even though it emerged in 2012 and some would argue earlier. According to New York Magazine’s The Cut, the color gained cult status in 2016. Now the color can be seen in lifestyle products such as fashion, accessories, and art and design. In beauty, “Millennial pink” was named the 2017 most popular lipstick color in the world, according to YouCam Makeup, with more than 23.5 million ‘try-ons’ a day. Driven by this trend, Rosé and Rosé-based cocktails took off and now pink has become so popular it’s appearing in unexpected foods. For example, Del Monte Fresh and Dole created a Pink Pineapple while Barry Callebaut unveiled a Ruby chocolate and the Great British Cheese Company crafted a pink Wensleydale cheese with Raspberry & Prosecco. “Driven by the younger generation, pink foods are flavorful, colorful and instagramable. To capitalize on this trend, Comax developed the Think Pink flavor collection,” noted Ms. Armstrong. This versatile pink collection can be used in multiple applications such as alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages including sparkling drinks, juice, and tea, beverage syrup, nutrition and performance products, candy, and sorbet.
Flavors in this group include: Pineapple Watermelon, Pink & White Cookie, Rosé Black Cherry Lemonade
